Chapter 229 - Time doesn't wait for anyone (part 2)

"I know exactly what you mean... Those weren't just your run-off-the-mile hired thugs, just someone who disguised themselves as bandits... Their technique was great, way better than mine, but they were using equipment that they weren't used to at all..."

Mizoe nodded, nudging the closest body with his foot.

"...like this one... he swung that mace as if it was a shortsword and threw himself off balance because of its weight, giving me a chance for a clean hit. Or that one with the bow. I am willing to bet that the only time he held a bow was during some mandatory practice – if at all – even if you didn't show up, he was more likely to wound one of his comrades than me."

The light-blue-haired man shook his head before motioning at the man taken down by Zoemi's initial ambush.

"Hmm...? Law of Sagittarius..."

The black-haired boy nodded before furrowing his brows, replacing the battle-related star powers and activating the support one that enhanced his hearing even further.
